We love training our 5 dogs here! They have gone on to earn many ribbons and titles in agility competitions. The prices are reasonable, and the 30 minute private classes help your dogs move through coursework much faster!

My Shepherd mix and I started agility classes over a year and a half ago with Susan, and it's one of the best things I've done with my dog. Susan is so knowledgable, helpful, and kind. The ability to do 1:1 sessions is such a bargain, and the course is different each week. I've learned so much by working with Susan, and my relationship with my dog is better as a result of our weekly agility sessions. Highly recommend!

Fantastic dog trainer. Susan's certification and countless years of experience makes all the difference. It was a complete re-education on building trust, proper communication, better understanding, learning about correct tools to use, and establishing suitable power dynamics and control.
I've been to other dog trainers. None come close.

Susan is great! We love the one on one we get with her and our dog for agility training. We appreciate her flexibility in finding time that meets our schedule. Our dog learned a lot last winter and we are excited to come back this year to learn more.
